The Antonins, known formally as the Antonin Maronite Order (Latin: Ordo Antonianorum Maronitarum; abbreviated OAM),^[1] is a monastic order of pontifical right for men in the Maronite Church. The order was founded on August 15, 1700, in the Monastery of Mar Chaaya, Lebanon, by Maronite Patriarch Gabriel of Blaouza (1704-1705).

Its name comes from the Arabic Antouniyah (Arabic: الرهبنة الانطونية). They are also called Mar Chaaya monks (Arabic: رهبان مار شعيا), in reference to the monastery hosting the see of their superior general. It is one of the three Maronite congregations of monks alongside the Baladites and Aleppians.
